I worked on this Iver Johnson motorbike tank for a fellow vintage bike enthusiast who didn't want to use decals.

Looking good, Tom.
Your hand painted lettering skills are nothing short of amazing.
I put the pedals on my 1937 Elgin Bluebird and took it for my first ride.
I don't know if you guys do this, but I always take note of my life's first experience.
I've seen pictures and heard about the legendary Elgin Bluebird all of my life, but I have never actually ridden one until this evening.
Its kind of like the first time you made love, a little klunky, but it will always be a special memory.
It's only your first once, so make it count.

That is really great work.
I would go with your method over the best decals anytime.

On a very lower level, I'm doing the stripes by hand as they were originally done
on my bike and not with pin-stripe decals.

This art of yours is like the WW2 leather jackets that were hand-painted with the specific “bomb units or insignia”.
Beautiful.


Thanks for sharing your skill.

Cleaning up this TOC Lucas bell and putting on my prewar Schwinn rat. Killer heavy bell.

Thanks for the nice comments. I've been doing Pinstriping, Lettering and Sign painting including Gold Leaf work for north of forty years. Most of my work is on custom vehicles and race cars. My old bike hobby has brought me into all sorts of extra work in things old and antique. Believe me, there's nothing low level about pinstriping. It takes a lot of patience and practice to pull lines by hand on cars as well as old bike parts. Good luck with your new project. Tom
